| How splendid in the morning glows the lily with what grace he throws | B |
| His supplication to the rose do roses nod the head Yasmin | C |

| But when the silver dove descends I find the little flower of friends | D |
| Whose very name that sweetly ends I say when I have said Yasmin | C |

| The morning light is clear and cold I dare not in that light behold | E |
| A whiter light a deeper gold a glory too far shed Yasmin | C |

| But when the deep red eye of day is level with the lone highway | F |
| And some to Mecca turn to pray and I toward thy bed Yasmin | C |
| - | |
| Or when the wind beneath the moon is drifting like a soul aswoon | C |
| And harping planets talk love's tune with milky wings outspread Yasmin | C |
| - | |
| Shower down thy love O burning bright For one night or the other night | G |
| Will come the Gardener in white and gathered flowers are dead Yasmin | C |
